Opinions de Puesto Los Olivos Irvine
We had an amazing experience at Puesto Los Olivos! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was vibrant, stylish, and welcoming - a perfect mix of modern and upscale Mexican vibes. The service was outstanding. The staff were friendly, attentive, and very knowledgeable about the menu, offering great recommendations. The food was absolutely delicious. The tacos, especially with their fresh handmade blue corn tortillas, were full of flavor and beautifully presented. You can really taste the quality of the ingredients. The margaritas were also excellent and perfectly crafted. Overall, it was a fantastic dining experience, and we’ll definitely be coming back. Highly recommended if you’re looking for elevated Mexican cuisine in Irvine! 🌮🍹
Beautiful restaurant, with authentic and fresh Mexican dishes. The chicharrones appetizer was a generous portion, the steak was delicious. Would definitely recommend it.
We visit this place every time we have church conference in Irvine. We don't stay long enough to give more stars is a quick visit. I recommend the potatoes taquitos appetizer. Our favorite.
Are the tacos expensive? Yes. Are they worth it? Absolutely. Some very creative and delicious gourmet tacos that really hit the spot. The appetizers go well with the tacos, and every taco was great. The interior is super nice with both indoor and outdoor seating. Staff are incredibly friendly and helpful.
Another delicious taco Tuesday. We had the filet mignon and grilled fish tacos and the nogada. Everything was delicious. Our server was Branden. He took the time to answer all of our questions and research where the meat was from since we're conscious about sustainability, farming, etc. We sat outside and the heated lamps were pleasantly warm.
The food is delicious but super expensive. Customer service is the best . We had dinner (8 people ) they automatically added an 18% tip. It’s ok because the tortillas were delicious 🤤 shrimp 🍤 bowl was amazing. This is a really good restaurant. The waiter was very friendly and he was checking if we needed anything.
my friend and i stopped by to celebrate my birthday with a small dinner/girls night, and my first experience here did not disappoint! the food was all so delicious and, being thursday, margs were half off. i got the lobster taco (you get one free if you sign up for their taco club) and the potato taquitos, which were so tasty! the chips came out so warm and fresh too, and the guac had a nice little lime kick to it. our server was cece and she was AMAZING. from the get go, she was so sweet to wish me a happy birthday and even gave me a free little cake that came with a card that was signed for the staff!! she went so above and beyond helping us, she was such a delight and i hope i get the pleasure of having her as our server again when we come back!
Juan was incredibly attentive and checked on our table regularly before and after ordering. He also gave us an extra horchata because they had accidentally made an extra one- which is my absolute favorite thing on the menu. I have autism and sometimes it’s hard for me to use my verbal skills in the way neurotypical people do while ordering food, there are times like today where I had a hard time explaining myself but Juan showed no judgement was very understanding and took my order perfectly, exactly as I wanted it. I’ve been coming to this Puesto for a while now and it’s one of our favorite Mexican places.
Great food tonight accompanied by an ever better evening crew. Chips and salsa are always a must. The new Cali bowl was delicious and the potato chips on it were a nice surprise! Although way too much corn on the bowl. The corn to bean ratio needs to be fixed. As soon as I sat at the bar I was greeted swiftly by a very attentive bar staff. Sawyer and Mark really know what they are doing and were great tonight! The servers were also wonderful and quick with bringing food out and making me feel taken care of! Thank you Ozzy and Cece, you both were great! Not a bad way to spend a Friday evening!
We had a great experience overall! Peter took excellent care of us—he kept checking in to make sure we were doing well, which we really appreciated. There was a small mix-up with our order, but it was quickly resolved once it was double-checked. The food was delicious, the ambiance was lovely, and the margaritas were amazing—though a bit pricey for the portion size. Still, we enjoyed our time!
We had a great lunch at Puesto. The Palomas were amazing and the short rib enchiladas absolutely delicious! Even the tortilla chips and guacamole were amazing! The service and ambiance are excellent. The only thing I didn’t like was them trying to tack on a 4% surcharge on the bill. I asked our server about it and she said they do that because of the increase in minimum wage, but it’s optional so I asked her to please take it off which she graciously did. Their prices are already very high, and they want to add another charge on top of that too??
Enjoyed this first visit to Puestos and would make it a habit to visit whenever I frequent Los Olivos. The food was fresh, the recommendations on point and the service was excellent. A lot of places make tacos, and so it's refreshing to have a familiar yet different take on the "classics".
Food was DELICIOUS! We were lucky to be there for their Happy Hour special! They have drink specials and 1/2 price appetizers. Love their chicken Flautas! So fresh and delicious! Our waitress CeCe was the very best. She was extremely attentive and we loved her suggestions. It was our first time in California, so she surprised us with a delicious sweet treat at the end of our meal! I highly recommend giving them a try. Hey, maybe one day they will open a location in NY!

Excellent food and service. We had a nice group lunch on a Saturday. Guacamole was delicious and the food selection is great. Everyone enjoyed their food.

This place has the best filet mignon tacos I’ve ever had. No seed oils is legendary too. But getting rid of the chicharrones as an appetizer is INSANE!!!!! Seriously they were one of the best things on the menu. TF is cucumber salad and why would anybody want it?? Bring back the chicharrones and I’ll give you the 5 stars you deserve. Elotes are dry and mid too
I highly recommend coming with a reservation when they open on the weekend. The restaurant ambiance was perfect since there weren't many parties. The interior was green and enhanced the experience. The Hero Taco had good flavor with the exception of the lobster. I would probably just get a steak taco next time and hope to add on saucy onion strings. The Wagyu Brisket Taco was also a good one. It was very spicy but kept you coming back. The meat on the Wagyu Brisket was a bit tough to chew. The Pina Colada is a good drink to get. A good amount of sweet without overdoing it. The bathroom is clean and has multiple stalls. There are free postcards at the hostess stand. There was a 4% surcharge added to our final bill for our party of 4.
The food was good and the Cadillac Margarita was pretty good too. The staff was friendly and attentive. Service was quick. The only criticism is that the items are priced a tad bit higher than I would expect. Charging for chips and salsa is odd to me. Regardless I would come again and I'd recommend it to others.
The chicken pastor tacos are a great choice for happy hour. The flavor was pleasing accompanied by a beautiful presentation. Service was pleasant with a friendly staff and active energy atmosphere. If you're in need of a little escape, Puestos is your place. Thank you for the experience, and I hope to visit again. Thank you
I'm going to be honest: this place is essentially an overpriced Chipotle. We came here for a birthday party in the semi-private space, and while the logistics worked (very spacious for a group of 1…

Tacos and drinks are great at this place. Had the carnitas and tenderloin tacos. Also tried the house margarita and the coconut margarita.

Good was a bit experimental :) my friends were all very happy. I think I choose wrong but I refuse to say what :) I don't want to sway away from it. The service was spectacular and helpful and the atmosphere was great for a work lunch.

While Puesto may have good food I couldn’t find it. The service was good but the food was just ok. I had a fish tacos and the fish was mushy, and the taco lacked the traditional Baja fish taco flav…
I’m going to be honest: this place is essentially an overpriced Chipotle. We came here for a birthday party in the semi-private space, and while the logistics worked (very spacious for a group of 12+), the math just doesn’t add up. We are talking $12 for one street taco. For that price, I expect magic, but my $25 bowl was small and completely lacked seasoning. The only saving grace? The margaritas were excellent. But would I come back for the food? Absolutely not.

I cannot recall a worse dining experience. We are long time fans of Puesto starting in San Diego and we used love this one since it so close to home. We haven’t been for a year (baby) and our experience yesterday reminded us why. As a group of 10, we were never even actually greeted by our server, he took half of the tables drink order only. 30 minutes after being seated he brought chips and salsa, 47 minutes after being seated he took our food order, at which time we also placed drink orders. The bar drinks (3 total) took 20+ minutes and there was no apology just that he put in an order after the bar got crowded - the restaurant was not busy at all. More than half of it was empty. Food came out wrong or late and there was never an apology there either. Never checked on drinks again, additional food items or dessert. I’m sure auto gratuity played a role. The food was mediocre at best. It was disappointing and embarrassing as we brought people from out of town and they were looking for great tacos and we assured them they’d love them at here. They did not.
